Introduction
Overview
Built-in 2015, the Center for Science and Technology includes a state-of-the-art computer lab and a robotics lab, supporting both what we teach and how we teach it.
Student/faculty research opportunities in Computer Science have been enriched with involved faculty, including Xunfei Jiang's work on power saving scheduling algorithms and Charlie Peck work with students on field science projects.
Our Green Science group designed and built our first solar charging station. Now anyone in the community can charge their devices using solar energy!
Given Earlham’s globally diverse community, most students don’t even have to leave campus in order to converse with native speakers in the languages they are studying.
Highlights
Earlham has three new Applied Science Groups: Disaster Preparation and Response, Fabrication Lab (3D design and printing), and Cluster System Administration.
Our majors have pursued graduate work in computer science at institutions such as Indiana University; University of California, Santa Cruz; and the universities of Central Florida, Delaware, Indiana, Maryland, Oregon, Pittsburgh, Toronto, and Washington.
Alumni have found jobs with such major technology companies as Lucent, Amazon.com, Oracle, Sybase, Microsoft, MCI/WorldCom, and Ontrack. Others have started their own technology businesses.
Standardized Test Scores
Standardized test scores are required of all international applicants.
If English is not your primary language, you must submit an English Proficiency exam and meet the required criteria. You may also submit an SAT or ACT score to enhance your competitiveness for admission and for scholarship consideration.
If English is your primary language, you may submit your SAT or ACT scores instead of an English Proficiency exam.
Current accepted tests and minimum required scores are:
| Test | Required | Recommended |
| SAT – EBRW | 400 | 600 |
| ACT – Reading | 20 | 26 |
| TOEFL - total | 80 | 92 |
| IELTS – total | 6.0 | 7.0 |
| Duolingo - total | 105 | 115 |
| GTEC - total | 1192 | 1255 |
| ISE - total | ISE II Merit | ISE III Pass |
While we understand the many issues present in standardized testing, Earlham’s current registration with SEVIS requires compliance with these test score requirements. SEVIS is the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System used by the Department of State on behalf of the Department of Homeland Security (in other words, important US governmental agencies). Therefore, the International Student Advisers must use test scores to substantiate academic preparedness and English proficiency when preparing an I-20 (the document needed to apply for a student visa) for an admitted student.
